You didn’t mention the budget super committee, which is going to be cutting all over the place. SLS won’t see the light of day once those guys report in December.
It needs a name. How about the “Saturn $5.95”?

jjs wins the thread.
I love reading Rand’s Popular Science pieces because you can just feel him gritting his teeth, veins all a-throbbing in his head, as he tries to be balanced and journalistic about something as foolhardy and pointless as the SLS. You’re a stronger writer than I, Rand.
Well, they do have editors over there…
I do try to tone it down, but they desnarkified it some.
